YMMV / Sherlock, Jr.

• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment:
  • As funny as the movie montage scene is, it doesn't add anything to the plot, and doesn't even really make sense as part of the Show Within a Show.
• Funny Moments:
  • The motorcycle ride, especially Sherlock Jr.'s Double Take when he realizes he's riding solo.
  • The scene at the very beginning with the spare dollars.
  • "Shadow your man closely."
• Hilarious in Hindsight: When the pawn shop receipt is shown, the name written on it is Will Smith. This is not a joke.
• Moment of Awesome:
  • The pool game.
  • The quick change.
  • The motorcycle ride.
  • That's one tricky bike ride.
  • Basically every stunt in the movie, aided by the knowledge it's Keaton doing everything himself.
• Vindicated by History: The film had mediocre box office and mixed critical reaction. Nowadays, it's considered one of Keaton's masterworks.
• Visual Effects of Awesome: The extended jump-cut segment at the start of the Dream Sequence. No Chroma Key here — for each shot, they went to a new location and Buster carefully recreated his last pose at the precisely the same distance from the camera.
